The showing of “Sir. No, sir” at the Town of Lee Democratic Committee movie night was well received. Much of the information in the documentary about military resistance during the Viet Nam war was new and most of the audience (about 25) were struck that it took seven years to bring that misadventure to a halt. The similarities with iraq are striking.
Though, it seems, considering all the stock news footage available from the Viet Nam era, that there’s a lot less objective coverage this time around. If the Pentagon learned anything, it was that the public should be kept in the dark about what was/is going on.
We’re scheduled to view a short video, “Kilowatt Ours,” at our regular meeting next Wednesday as well. Meet, as usual, at Gepetto’s in Newmarket and come a little early, if you’re planning to eat. Any candidates for public office are, of course, always welcome. If they get in touch, I can put them at the head of the agenda.
Both Obama and Kucinich were represented at the Lee meeting, btw, and left literature to pass around. Full Story

Dear Supervisor Jeff Stone, and Distinguished Supervisors of Riverside County California Districts 1-5:
I am an election law attorney as well as being the co-author of a scientific study on irregularities in Sequoia Edge touch screen DRE voting equipment during the 2004 election, found at http://tinyurl.com/ahkt9 .1 I write to make a Counter-Challenge to the Supervisor Stone’s in January 3, 2007 letter and December 2006 statements, and in light of Secretary of State Bowen’s letter finding that the conditions on the hack test were “overly narrow” in that it required a voter to do the hack containing only what was in their pockets, etc. See http://tinyurl.com/2rgns4 This attempt to restrict conditions to a “voter fraud” hack at a hypothetical polling place bears an interesting resemblance to the current scandal involving US Attorneys being pressured to investigate “voter fraud” in 2004, when study after study indicates, and those prosecutors found, that voter fraud is rare, and the payoff for the typical voter fraud (one extra vote) is hardly worth a sentence of up to 5 years. See, e.g., March 5, 2007 report “The Politics of Voter Fraud” at http://www.projectvote.org/ One of the harms exposed in the US Attorney scandal is the misdirection of governmental prosecutorial resources when the focus solely on “voter fraud”, for the reasons outlined in this counter-challenge.
